For Monday: Practicing for the CATW and Open Thread

For Monday, choose one (or more) essays from the term to either revise or complete as an essay if you haven't yet done so. Leave them in the comments. If you cut and paste from a word document, include a word count. Look at each other's work, leave a comment and take a look at my comments.

Drawing Connections: For Thursday, February 3rd

For Thursday, choose one of the readings from last week's lab. It can be one that you summarized, the one we discussed in class, or another that's interesting to you. In the comments, talk about the connections between this article and Danticat's book. Think about how to use specific language to make those connections. What other information or details would you like to know that would help you explore these connections further?
